Re. Funny how some mock the Fair site but somehow are never able to refute the info contained therein.

I didn't mock the FAIR site, I merely demolished their claims with solid evidence.
I believe your assertion I was not able to refute the info contained in the FAIR article is silly. I will, of course, leave it to each reader of this thread to form their own opinion, but submit to you the vast majority of all non-biased individuals will agree with me.

Re. They continue to cite anti-Mormon sites & literature as irrefutable & beyond reproach which is laughable especially when given valid arguments to the contrary.

The anti-Mormon sites you refer to present direct quotes from LDS Scriptures, LDS leaders, third party sources (e.g. court documents) and distinguished experts (such as the Egyptologists mentioned in the video).
By contrast, you are resorting to ad hominum attacks rather than presenting valid rebuttal evidence.

Re. Many [links in the FAIR article] contain opinions from experts that are not LDS.

A person's religious faith has no bearing on the validity of claims based on science (e.g. did Joseph translate Chandler's scrolls correctly).
The non-LDS experts cited by FAIR are just as wrong as the conclusions stated by the LDS writers of the article. This according to experts whose credentials were presented for inspection in my posting to you.

Re. I would guess the anti-Mormon sites are for more credible.

Often times, YES.
I have found that to be the case for the reasons cited in the next post.

Re. But of course, this isn’t a quest for truth is it? It’s about winning your case.

With Time and all Eternity at stake, it is about learning the truth. And nothing else!
The truth is Joseph Smith's translation of the papyrus documents was wrong. He misread every single character on the scroll in order to concoct a story he attributed to Abraham about a place called Kolob.
The Chandler document was written approximately 17 centuries after Abraham died. It contains a series of passwords and magic chants to enable the deceased (an Egyptian priest named Horace) to pass by certain checkpoints as he journeyed into the pagan afterlife.
